Dekho Holi Aayi!

Ayi Holi ayi, sab rang layi,

Bin tere Holi bhi na bhaye;

Bhar pichkari, sakhiyo

Bhigi more sari hai hai ....


Celebrate the arrival of spring by splashing colors on one another today!

Holi is the Hindu festival that welcomes the Spring and celebrates the new life and energy of the season. Although Holi has religious roots, not much religious activity is involved in its celebration.

Holi is the most energetic Indian festival, filled with fun and good humour; even the strict rules of separation between castes are abandoned.

Holi is also called 'The Festival of Colours', and people celebrate the festival by smearing each other with paint, and throwing coloured powder and dye around in an atmosphere of great good humour.

Holi is seen by some as the Hindu festival that is nearest in spirit to St. Valentine's Day.

Join me tomorrow on FM 89.1 for a fun filled evening with Holi songs.

Its good to see somebody very proud of our country and putting it in words. I wish to say something about india which we all may or may not know.
It was Aryabhatta, an indian who first discovered the concept of zero.
Plastic surgery was invented in india way back in 3 b.c by sushrutha and charka.

It was Jagadish chandra bose of india , who discovered that plants and trees had life and they could show emotions as well.
We ,Indians, have a lot of knowledge and resources ,but we still do not realise them and fall prey to other countries Hope we realise this.
Keep blogging
